My Dexter used to swallow treats whole like that too, he gave me the scare of my life 2x, one time I thought he was going down and my mom happened to be there and somehow she did the Heimlich and got the treat up and out. No more small treats for my boys.
Try other treats that are BIGGER, like a bully stick that he will have to take his time to chew on it. Its hard and long, there is no way he can swallow it whole, and it will slow him down. My boys LOVE them! (not me so much... they stink lol) but I feel ok with them eating them when they are supervised. When I'm not home, I put them on the counter so they can't chew them while no one is home. I throw them away when they get too small. |
What IS a bully stick? Is it bull or beef penis? My dogs adore them and I have them chew a few times a day... I don't care for the smell either, but I see WHY they love to chew them so much lmaaaaooooooo

. I will throw them away when they get too small as well. I see what a piggy poo he is. My female is nothing like him....she's such a lady

. Ok, well I guess I'll have to find a better source of protein. I give them a shot of protein from time to time thru out the day with these tenders. I guess I could just give him some chicken from the fridge...
